Four years ago Anika started Grüvi, a Denver-based line of alcohol-free social beverages, working alongside her brother Niki. Despite having no experience in the healthy beverage category she was driven by her vision, motivation, and passion to change the way people drink by creating a line of delicious, non-alcoholic beverages that bridge the gap of the underwhelming non-alcoholic bevs available.

Selected as Forbes 30 Under 30 at just 25 years old, Anika hasn’t been shy to challenge the status quo. Leveraging her marketing talent and innovation savvy, she created a community-first brand that is uniquely positioned to bring more joy to the category. By continually innovating and developing cutting-edge technology, while also leveraging consumer insights through the QR codes on-pack, Grüvi became the first company to receive global gold medals in both beer and wine!

She has co-led Grüvi to be one of the fastest-growing NA brands in North America with 300% year-over-year growth with products available in 4000+ stores, and built an amazing team of 15. Since day one it has been important to her that Grüvi is an impact forward company, with community volunteering initiatives as a major driver.

As a founding member of ANBA (Adult Non-Alcoholic Beverage Association) Anika is dedicated to inspiring emerging entrepreneurs to lead change to help change lives and challenge the stigma around alcohol-free choices. She is honored and excited to be speaking at the upcoming Unstoppable Women Conference and is eager to meet with fellow female founders and entrepreneurial thinkers!
